Be The Change...

I woke up this morning with this thought in my mind "be the change you want to see" it was funny really, I was not sure where I had heard it but as a lover of a good quote I googled it.....

"Be the change you want to see in the world" ~ Gandhi.

It amused me. After all the thinking I have been doing lately about being a better version on myself.... I was pleased the quote was by Gandhi so I read on until I found this one...

"You may never know what results from your actions, but if you do nothing there will be no results."

There has been a book lying round my house for a couple of years now. Inside the cover it says "What is the point, you may ask, in messing things up by trying to do something different? The point is you are "trying" we are not promising you will lose 10lb in a week, become irressistible to the opposite sex, or suddenly be fabulously rich overnight. Instead we offer ideas that will make your life a bit more fun, make you a bit more successful and a bit happier.....All you have to do is be stimulated enough to try them out."

So in my personal journey to be "better" starting tomorrow I have decided I am going to do everything that is suggested in the book, and see where it takes me....For the record there are 365 things in the book! Is that one for every day? Hmm....I think I need to decide on the rules I suppose :)
